I really love Something Special, it's just the loveliest program I am forced to watch with little monkey. I can't help but join in with the singing, signing and calling for Mr. Tumble.
I get to watch a bit of CBeebies (lucky me!) on a Saturday when my two nieces come to visit. The 3 year old loves Justin and even the 8 month old baby is starting to take notice. He's a reassuring throwback to the kids presenters of my youth - daft enough to appeal to the kids without being so "wacky and zany" as to annoy the adults, and with Something Special he helps to introduce the delicate subject of disabilities to young children sensitively, without making a big deal out of it.
Well done Justin - even if Mr Tumble does owe a little bit to Oliver Hardy :-)
